“Jesus waited three days to come back to life. It was perfect! If he had only waited one day, a lot of people wouldn't have even heard he died. They'd be all, "Hey Jesus, what up?" and Jesus would probably be like, "What up? I died yesterday!" and they'd be all, "Uh, you look pretty alive to me, dude..." and then Jesus would have to explain how he was resurrected, and how it was a miracle, and the dude'd be like "Uhh okay, whatever you say, bro..." And he's not gonna come back on a Saturday. Everybody's busy, doing chores, workin' the loom, trimmin' the beard, NO. He waited the perfect number of days, three. Plus it's Sunday, so everyone's in church already, and they're all in there like "Oh no, Jesus is dead", and then BAM! He bursts in the back door, runnin' up the aisle, everyone's totally psyched, and FYI, that's when he invented the high five. That's why we wait three days to call a woman, because that's how long Jesus wants us to wait.... True story.”
Barney Stinson

“Книги – это не святые реликвии. Слова могут быть моей религией, но, когда дело доходит до богослужения, я предпочитаю церковь самую низкую. Храмы и кумиры мне не интересны. Суеверное идолопоклонство, присущее буржуазной одержимости книгами, досаждает мне до чрезвычайности. Подумайте, сколько детей забросило чтение лишь потому, что какой-то ханжа выбранил их за слишком небрежно перевернутую страницу. Мир полон людей, любящих повторять, что к книгам «следует относиться с уважением». Но говорил ли нам кто-нибудь, что с уважением следует относиться к словам? Нас с ранних лет учат почитать лишь внешнее и видимое... Книга – это всего лишь продукт технологии. Если людям нравится собирать их и платить за ту или иную немалые деньги – тем лучше. Пусть они только не притворяются, что это призвание более высокое и разумное, чем коллекционирование табакерок или картинок из упаковок жевательной резинки.”
Стивен Фрай

Veronica Roth
“We believe in ordinary acts of bravery, in the courage that drives one person to stand up for another.”
Veronica Roth, Divergent

Elizabeth I
“I know I have but the body of a weak and feeble woman, but I have the heart and stomach of a king, and of a king of England too.”
Queen Elizabeth I

Philippa Gregory
“And – I think you know, don’t you? – that I love you, Anne.’

I feel as if I have been living in a loveless world for too long. The last tender face I saw was my father’s when he sailed for England. ‘You do? Truly?’

‘I do.’ He rises to his feet and pulls me up to stand beside him. My chin comes to his shoulder, we are both dainty, long-limbed, coltish: well-matched. I turn my face into his jacket. ‘Will you marry me?’ he whispers.

‘Yes,’ I say.”
Philippa Gregory, The Kingmaker's Daughter
